# mens rea
## English
### Etymology

From Latin mēns + reus (literally “guilty mind”), from the English common law precept Actus non facit reum nisi mens rea sit ("The act does not make a person guilty unless the mind is also guilty").

### Pronunciation

* IPA: /ˌmɛnz ˈɹiːə/
* Audio (US):(file)
* Rhymes: -iːə

### Noun

mens rea (plural mentes reae)
* (general, psychology) A reactive mind, a conscious knowing by the individual that an act was committed, either by themselves or by another.
* (law) A guilty mind, the conscious knowing of a perpetrator while committing an act that the act is illicit.
** 2006, David Lanham, David Wood, Bronwyn Bartal, Rob Evans, Criminal Laws in Australia, page 198:As a general rule the act (or omission) causing death and the relevant mens rea must occur at the same time. The most obvious application of this rule to exclude liability is the case where the mens rea is formed after the actus reus has taken place.
** 2007, Nikolaj Nottelmann, Blameworthy Belief: A Study in Epistemic Deontologism, page 10:The criminal offences not requiring a mens rea proof for convictions are then specifically indicated in the legislature as being under “strict liability.”
** 2011, Jonathan Herring, Criminal Law, 7th edition, page 67:The majority of serious criminal offences require, in addition to the actus reus, a specific state of mind on the part of the accused, usually referred to as the mens rea. Many less serious crimes require no mens rea, but simply proof that the defendant caused the prohibited harm.
** 2016, Dennis J. Baker, Reinterpreting Criminal Complicity and Inchoate Participation Offences, page 174:The individual mentes reae of the joint perpetrators have to be considered separately.
** 2024 September 11, Richard Brody, ““Winner” Takes Political Comedy Seriously”, in The New Yorker‎:In “Winner,” [Susanna] Fogel dramatizes, onscreen, Reality [Winner]’s mens rea, showing the elaborate details of her plan to print, purloin, and disclose the relevant pages of the Russia file—and the combination of forethought and improvisation on which the plan’s success depends.

#### Usage notes

In common law legal systems (those of England and its former colonies), different jurisdictions make different classifications of degree of guilt (levels of mens rea). In the highest classification, the guilty party intentionally committed the act in full knowledge of its consequences and that it was an offence; lower classifications imply lower degrees of intention (such as intentionally undertaking a course of action of which the offence was a likely result). In cases of strict liability and absolute liability offences, no proof on mens rea is required by the prosecution.

** 1976, Paul Veyne, Le Pain et le Cirque : Sociologie historique d'un pluralisme politique, Éditions du Seuil:Rome a eu l’équivalent des purges et procès à grand spectacle, et de la maladie du soupçon ; tout sénateur était soupçonnable, et il en fut ainsi jusqu’à la fin de l’Empire.Rome had the equivalent of purges and great show trials, and the disease of suspicion; every senator was suspect, and it was thus until the end of the Empire.
